Profitable Public House In Poole Dorset For Sale

Business description

Preferred Commercial is delighted to offer for sale this profitable public house, which was established in 1900 and which has been in our client's careful hands since 2002. The pub is only now offered to the market due to our client's other business interests. The business trades 7 days a week and generates a turnover in the region of £281,000 per annum with a gross profit of 44%, derived from 100% wet sales. A new owner could, if desired, introduce lunch and evening meals and establish sports teams, such as darts and football. There is also scope to embark on a modest marketing campaign and the introduction of a website. The pub is well-supported by the local community, enjoying much repeat trade and word of mouth recommendations. The premises are well-equipped to suit the trade, boasting a spacious bar area, games room and commercial kitchen. To the first floor there is also spacious 3-bedroom owners' accommodation with lounge and bathroom. We feel this represents an ideal opportunity to acquire an already busy pub with 3-bedroom owners' accommodation and huge scope for future development. Early negotiations with Preferred Commercial must come highly recommended.
